This show is a free inspiration from the tale "O amor de um pássaro por um lagarto" (the love of a bird for a lizard), by author and actor Gero Camilo. It transforms the unusualness of the coexistence between different natures and the love that transforms us, overflows us into the other, that affects us to the point of merging or understanding ourselves as part of the other, even if there is a whole system that does not accept certain ways of existing. The encounters between Kilezum and Aireré are choreographically influenced by dances from popular culture, such as Coco de Roda, Cavalo
Marinho, samba de peréa and xaxado. Subverting the logic of the "bipedia" so strongly in dance, Kilezuuuummmm brings these rhythms, usually danced with the feet, to a dance with the hands on the floor, approaching the way Edu gets around.
You are all set!
Your first Culture Weekly will arrive this week.
